Why are Macs not good at playing games?

Not many users = not many games, and apple doesn't market their hardware towards gaming anyway.

With macs you pretty much get a PC for everyday use or one for Professional graphic design.

Games do come out for Macs, it just take alot longer.
There are some good games like COD, BF1942 etc that are avaliable for the Mac right now, should be able to find a more exensive list on the Apple website.
However if you are a big gamer, then pc is still the much better choice at the moment in my opinion.

The expensive mac towers could actually be pretty good with a few tweaks here and there.

They already have tons of RAM, and tons of processing power, just not with graphics.

Slap few new gaming graphics cards in (pretty sure they have multiple PCI express slots), and bootcamp, then be on your way. :P

Speaking of which I went into an Apple store and saw UT2004 for $90 AUS, so in America think of it as $45. I then went to EB and saw UT3 for PC for $60, $30 US and loled. Sucks for people who own apple PC's and want to be a little of gaming. Cos they can barely even do that.
